China has been hit hard by the spread of the virus as the country is the epicenter of the COVID-19. Japan, South Korea, India, and Australia are some of the key economies in Asia-Pacific that are also under threat of COVID-19 outbreak and so is their chemical industry. China is the core center of the chemical industry’s supply chain, with the presence of organizations including Sinopec, BASE SF, ABA Chemicals that have massive factories in the country. Amid this pandemic outbreak, the chemical manufacturers in China are experiencing a disruption in their production operation. As per the International Council of Chemical Associations (ICCA), China is the eighth largest chemical importing nation and the twelfth largest chemical exporting nation across the globe. Most of the Chinese factories were shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic. As a result, there is a high disruption in the supply chain process of chemicals globally.
Asia-Pacific chemical industry is segmented into petrochemicals, basic inorganic, polymers, specialty chemicals, consumer chemicals, and others. Based on the segmentation, the petrochemical industry is expected to see a considerable downfall in 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On the other hand, the consumer chemical industry is least impacted by the substantial demand for soap and detergents even during the pandemic. Therefore, the consumer chemical industry is expected to see the least impact, with a downfall of around 1.5% in 2020, due to the outbreak. Consumer chemical essentially includes cosmetics, vitamins, and health supplements, soaps, detergents, and household chemicals, perfumes, and flavours. The demand for consumer chemicals has increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure the proper supply of the products related to consumer chemical government is taking essential steps.
